Havana - Elevated Luxury, Unrivalled Views

Nathalie’s home is truly a tropical paradise! There are breathtaking views of the ocean and the beach from the main sitting room and balcony, and water views from practically every room in the house. The house is beautifully and comfortably furnished. It is a short walk down to Macrossan street but the house feels secluded and private in its lush gardens, swimming pool  and expansive panorama to the sea. Superb!

70th birthday celebration

We had a fantastic time staying at Havana. It was ideal for our family group - spaces to be together but also spaces to be apart, The decor and over all vibe of the house was spot on, beautifully decorated. Also loved the books and magazines that had been left. We all enjoy cooking and were impressed with how well resourced the kitchen was. We appreciated the pantry items that had been left, we have added to these. The outside living space was fantastic, we made great use of the pool and also loved coming together to eat around the outside table. The grounds and gardens are beautifully maintained, the view stunning.
